Looks like Bob and Adam Palmer are ISP drones.

I remind you good gentlemen it is also an ISP’s job to provide reasonable and opt out options of services such as you support it is not in their domain to enslave users and force their subscribers to conform to their pocket book popups. It is a direct violation of the internet fair use and the customer’s rights. Get used to it the ISP’s can be sued out of existence or supplanted by another that offers the un managed access that people want and expect.

In your own words … “Get Used to IT!!”

While I object to folks that do tricks with basic DNS services that disrupt normal operation there is a place for that sort of thing.

I’ve been using OpenDNS servers here for a while and find that the added value I’m seeing is well worth getting to see an ad from time to time.

Get used to it. ISP’s are a business, they will do what they feel they need to do make a profit. If you want what they have to offer then you will just need to suck it up and deal with it. You can always go somewhere else. Capitalism at it’s finest, no different than ATM fees.
